Hello. We’re
delighted you could join us. We’d like to recognise that; we’d like to say
hello.
We are REMOTE.
We are here to help you be more like people like you.
Imagine you’re
in a theatre of the future, powered by an algorithm. REMOTE is an
interactive live game interrogating the politics of choice, and
decision-making in an immaterial world, saturated with technology.
This is a piece
of game-theatre that you play sitting down, and its entirely led by you,
the audience. As well as just being yourselves – you are also, together,
playing a character, and you’ll be asked to make choices for her.
Fusing an
interactive script with a live and responsive sound design – REMOTE is a
mechanical theatre game. It’s 2017, and we’re a room full of mostly
strangers, imagining the future.
★★★★ “Clever and intriguing – interactive fiction
exploring small politics, big algorithms and thwarted consensus” The Stage
★★★★ “This is immersive theatre, but not as you know
it…here the entire audience make decisions that will shape the play’s
narrative.” Time
Out
“Theatre like this is important, in fact crucial, in
reminding us that our vote can count… It is pertinent and playful; watch
it if you want to be engaged.” The Upcoming
“Coney highlight the politics of choice, the limits of
free will and the feeling of being implicated in everything
that happens…this kind of theatre highlights liveness.” A Younger Theatre
Coney is a National Portfolio Organisation of Arts Council
England and a registered charity.
REMOTE is commissioned by Theatre in the Mill and funded
by 89 warm and generous Kickstarter backers. The show has been further
supported by Camden People’s Theatre, and developed through scratch and
residency at Camden People’s Theatre, Battersea Arts Centre
